Good gearing for single track in Colorado and Alaska. I don&#39;t tighten the belt too much and have rarely had it skip. It is a bad sound when it does skip, but nothing compared to gears constantly chunking. Personally, I think the belt skips when it is too tight...metag3noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23821152.post-68992545662860526672014-01-15T16:41:37.804-07:002014-01-15T16:41:37.804-07:00It took me a while of messing with the high tensio...It took me a while of messing with the high tension required by the belt drive, to realize that running belt drive was not for me. I struggled with the belt drive tension messing with the disc brake alignment. <br />When I got the tension correct the brake would not work. Dialing down the tension allowed the brake to work but drivetrain was not right. I am guessing that the same frame would not be sold with a factory belt drive using the Cog and ring size I tried. Switching back to chain drive took all of 15 minutes, and I am happy to say worked immediately. YEAH METAL!Eric Brandthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00222037611223659083noreply@blogger.com
